Syracuse senior defenseman Brian Megill (March 1)

Syracuse University Athletics

The Orange's 6-2 win against Army on Sunday was anchored by Megill's defensive effort. The 6-foot-1, 220-pound defenseman blanketed attackman Garrett Thul, preventing him from recording a point and ending his streak of 42 straight contests with a goal -- a run that had been the longest in Division I. Megill was part of a defensive corps that kept the Black Knights off the scoreboard for the first 21:45 and the entire second half. Megill, who also forced a team-high four turnovers, was named Big East Defensive Player of the Week for the first time in his career.
